R.I.P. SCOTT ASHETON: BRASS BAND PLAYS THE STOOGES

Had a request a few months ago for The Ridiculous Trio plays The Stooges album to be re-upped, but the files had gone missing. So big thanks to reader Traitor Vic for sending it our way yesterday - the same day we learned that Stooges drummer Scott Asheton had died. Tho I'm sure he had nothing to do with that. (Uh...right, Vic?)The Stooges Go PolkaI never saw the reunited Stooges. When I saw Iggy live years ago he played lots o' Stooges material and I was satisfied with that, and anyway I'm always dubious about these long-dead bands getting back together. But now I'm kinda regretting it. Hmm...maybe I should see the Sex Pistols next time...
